Guide patterns for selective trout

Mahoganies

Mahoganies are a fall mayfly staple in our area—especially on Silver Creek and the Henry's Fork. We like to fish these on warmer days from late September through November. Afternoon hatches can be incredible.

Knock-Down

The CDC Cripple Mahogany is another vulnerability pattern that fishes well when trout become selective—when they're focused on knockdowns and insects stuck in the surface tension.
